The
Bureau of Air (BOA) is composed of two divisions, the Division
of Air Pollution Control and the Division of Mobile Source Programs:
The purpose of the Division of Air Pollution Control (DAPC) is
to improve air quality by identifying air pollution problems,
proposing appropriate regulations to control or reduce air contaminants,
conducting inspections and reviewing permit applications to assure
compliance with existing air pollution regulations.
The primary purpose of the Division of Mobile Source Programs (DMSP)
is to enforce vehicle emission limitations. To enforce the emission
limitations, the DMSP operates a testing program for gasoline
powered vehicles that measures exhaust emissions for carbon monoxide
and hydrocarbons. The testing program requires vehicles that cannot
meet state standards to have the necessary repairs in order to
achieve compliance.
